I was thinking about getting this bike, but I need it to be able to have one of those dual baskets in the back, can this bike have that?

Unfortunately the bike is not made with permanent "braze-ons" for a rear rack which i assume is what you are referring to. I have a rack on mine with panniers and had to buy the following parts from Amazon and it works like a champ. Its so sturdy that my 5 year old sits on it on a ride down the street.

I didn't try to add those baskets in the back, I'm not sure if this is possible since I'm not a pro in customizing bikes. Sorry my friend

I attached this to the back of my bike but found it to big, making it hard to get on and off the bike. I would suggest to pick a smaller basket for the back.

I think you would have to purchase a rear bicycle rack and find out is the rack will accommodate this basket. I have a Jamis Commuter and the basket does not fit properly on the rack that came with the bike.

Drive makes a basket That mounts under the seat, I have a pouch that velcros on the top crossbar in the front. The top tube is not round so I don't think a regular basket would fit there, and the lower tube is where the seat mount hinges. Maybe on the side crossbars.

Hi Barbara - the bike does come with a basket holder for the back (standard amongst bikes), but does not come with a basket per say. I utilize the basket holder and connect a milk carton with some bungee cords and this works out great for when I want fold up the bike. Otherwise with the milk carton still attached, the folding process might not work out as easily as you would like. Hope this helps! Mike

Bonnie, I got the stainless steel rack offered on Amazon actually. My brother-in-law builds bikes and he is going to put both the rack and the basket on for my sister this weekend. I'll be glad to ask him and email you back Monday or Tuesday. Dino not sure you can see all the answers since you tried to help Bonnie, thanks for the tip below. Since I don't know if the rack I purchased is singular or double tubing... I guess I'll find out this weekend if it works well. Denise in Land O Lakes, FL (I can be reached at czgringo@aol.com)

Yes. I bought it for my grand daughter and it is a beautiful bike. She never rode it cause she wanted a Mongoose. I guess thats what all her friends had so now it sits in storage. You will love the bike. so very well made.Pegs are on front and back wheels.

No, it doesn't need a rear rack at all. It actually provides its own rear rack, behind the seat. But the seat itself is kept above the wheel by the rods below it and by the attachment to the main seat stem. I had a lot of trouble getting the bike mounted on my bike, though...Some bikes work better for it than others.

No. Not without some homemade hardware of Yur devising. It just hangs on to your rear rack by itself. If you wanted to affix it permanently you would need at minimum some nuts and bolts. Mine has never come off. I really like this basket because it stays put and it does lift off the rack easily. How that helps

Not that I can see, but if you have a creative mind I'm sure you can come up with something. I attached a carry rack to the back of mine. It is the type that just attaches to the seat post (Clean and simple) and serves a dual purpose, as it protects my back from getting wet if I go through puddles. Half the fun of riding this monster is getting a little dirty. LOL

It came with a rack over the rear wheel. You can mount a basket or small sadle bag on it.

no idea about the rack, but on my rack no additional assembly/hardware was required. You just pull out the 2 handles on either side of the bottom of the basket (one is visible in the photo), position the basket, and release the handles to clamp it on to the rack. In the photo shown the carry handle would be right behind the seat of the bike.

I have never done that with the basket and it is not mentioned in the directions that it can be used that way. However, I suppose that it could be secured to a rear bike rack somehow. One would have to figure out a safe way to attach it since there are no tie downs specifically for that purpose.

Yes, locking of the rear wheel and I'd say the basket was an adequate size. I would check with the seller because things change with this product.

Yes, you could. It simply oes between the front and rear pieces. Adding another would only make it longer. I would caution too much length without a third support rod under the basket though.

i don't now about a basket but you can get a backpack that fits over the seat back. it zips shut which is nice.

Yes, I would store those two front wheels in the large back compartment while biking. When you get to the store, detach it from the bike and pop on the two front wheels and off you go!
